A couple of OK runs hopefully means I can get back in to training properly - though as I've missed the best part of a month in training and gone slightly backwards instead of forwards the target is now just to get round somehow instead of run for a target time.
By now I was hoping to be able to run 9 or 10 miles - I'm managing about 4. I should be able to get that up to around 8 miles in training before the GNR but that is still along way left for the crowd to inspire me for. I'm now looking at around 3 hours to complete the 13.1 mile course instead of the 2:15 I'd hope for.
I'm trying a change of strategy on the training too - more bike and rowing machine work to get the aerobic abilities up while putting less stress on the joints. Basically trying to balance the need to train with out overdoing it and injuring myself again.
August is going to be a hard month
